This card was made for 2 different challenges. First for the Tuesday Crafty Secret Forum challenge and second for Taylor's Anniversary Challenge using a sketch by Sherrie Siemens.
Marcy is this week's host for the Tuesday Crafty Secrets Forum challenge and the theme for this challenge is "Lost & Found"
I knew I had this stamp set from Crafty Secrets - Cofee & Tea for some time now and never used it until today. It got lost in between all the stamp set that I had, but now I found it and decided to use it for today's challenge. Stamped the images onto white cs with Tuxedo Black Memento and colored it with Copic markers. Main image was cut with a circle coluzzle and matted it on to a brown scalloped circle that was die cut with the scallop circle nestibilities. Other 2 images was cut with scissors. Used liquid applique for the foam on the coffee. Other 2 circles were cut with 3 sizes of circle scallop nestabilities. Punched a strip of brown cs with the MS Lace border punch and topped it with a Lace ribbon that I had purchased awhile back but never got around to using it. BG paper is from Paper Pizazz - Tan Scollwork Stripes.

WOW!!! This is gorgeous, absolutely stunning. I love the sepia look you've done, it suits the coffee theme so well, and how the lace ribbon mimics the border punch. Definitely going into my favourites so I can learn how you did those Nestabilities hollow circles.

Very impressive look with all the circles so nicely placed. I'm feeling mocha and latte with all your rich colors....it's calorie free right?
I love the way you wove the lace border through the circle Marisa. You are always inspiring!
